More information about Galexia’s Identity and Access Management (IdAM) Guiding Principles
Galexia’s methodology includes 6 IdAM best practice principles that should be applied to programs of work, activities and individual projects.
IdAM Guiding Principle |
Example application (and this will vary on a case-by-case basis) |
|
1. Common Governance |
Provide central control while also supporting the flexibility of autonomous execution across various business functions. Align IdAM projects with key initiatives to maximise business impact. |
|
2. Invest in Standard Solutions |
Invest in commercially available products when possible and deploy with minimal customisation. Reduce or eliminate the development of in-house solutions/tools which can be costly to maintain and difficult to integrate. |
|
3. Reuse, Replicate, Standardise |
Where possible, centralise IdAM process execution, reuse existing technologies, replicate proven processes, standardise technologies and architectural patterns. |
|
4. Automate |
Where possible, provide process automation and/or system driven execution. Streamline provisioning processes. Establish workflows and accountability matrices for sustainability. |
|
5. Enable |
Enable the business by investing in people, training and communication as an integral component of execution. IdAM processes and solutions are operationalised across the organisation for sustainability. |
|
6. Measure |
Measure and monitor the IdAM program at various levels, considering the customer, key performance indicators, key risk indicators, compliance, and adherence to service expectations. |
